@Maju:
no she does not…the ending didn't really gave us anything we didn't know...it's still stupid how she turned for an offhand compliment by the guy that loves and compliments every good looking woman ever
I am confused? In this chapter recaps what happens, but this time we see WHAT SHE WAS THINKING THE WHOLE TIME IN THOSE MOMENTS. The scene where she was in the window was there before this chapter came. At first i didnt know what oda was doing, it felt off consdering how evil she was, at first i thought was she was good and planning to make the SHs go away to help them. But it turns out she was evil the whole which threw me off because the window scene implied she didnt like being a puppet to BM.
Now thanks to this chapter, she never liked being a manipulator from the start. When she was with sanji when he opened up to her we see that she wasnt comfortable with how he was so nice to her because of her true nature. This built up to what happened where sanji complemented her on her most insecure part her 3 eyes.
Regarding how sanji complements every woman doesnt make sense. I think the issue your having is the difference between the readers knowledge vs character in-universe knowledge. We the audience that sanji loves womena and complements every hot women, but pudding doesnt know that. So when he was so kind to her it made her go in to the tears because this was the first someone was nice to her. Again if you knew what she was thinking the whole the turn makes sense
